Not for nothing but I haven't needed tech support on the job in 7 years. That's precisely the last time I used Windows professionally. Prior to that I'd spent a decade running Windows at work, across multiple organizations and had similar experiences as described.

That is one of the downfalls of Windows - it's enterprise ready, which means that your experience is at the whim of another person or policy.
